I strongly advise against putting your email address in any of your posts.

Spammers just LOVE to harvest email addresses from web boards, and a lot of effort went into protecting your address from the spambots on this site.

If anyone wants to contact you, they can do so through your profile (publicly or privately), and they can also click your avatar for a shortcut.

That message will go straight to the email address you registered with. If your email address isn't up-to-date, shoot me a line and I'll fix it for you.

Just trying to help keep the spammers out of your inbox.

On blogs and some forum posts people put "theiremail at emaildomain dot com". I don't know if it works, but I think the idea is to fool email harvesting programs. So maybe try that.

Meh, I just overwork our mail server's spam catcher. My email is out there so much and yet the most annoying emails I get are the PR ones from companies that want me to promote something that Danica might do.
